Sweet, will keep an eye out for you! Be careful around Newcastle itself if your car is modified, the boys in blue had ruined the car scene up here due to the minority that spoilt it for all of us!

every time i fix something, something else breaks. every time i take it to the mechanic they find another 50 problems. however i havent really gotten my way with the car yet.

Haha maybe your car and mine were friends back in J land, sounds like the way mine was...... BUT its more because i modified the kent outta mine and kept breaking stock bits lol

would like to try formula Ford's.

How much for those?

and I doubt I'd fit in the cockpit.

its through those 'adrenalin' deals online. $350 gets you 10 laps around a small section of eastern creek (takes ~ less then 1min to complete a lap). because someone cancelled in our group we got 15 laps each, i would reccomend 20laps, as you do that in two parts.

its not the best thing ever, but is alot of fun. they are proper formula fords, but they put used wet tyres on?... and they may be detuned slightly?... but still went pretty hard and cornered well.

i think you would be fine fitting in. they have limits of like 120kg and 200cm or something like that.

sounds like a good day ant!

Paul has a go kart he takes to Cameron park.

looks alright but wakie is cheaper all day in something much faster ;)

really, i might need to hit him up... im heaps keen to give them a go.

i wouldnt say wakie is cheaper?... (i dont know the full costs of go karts yet though) but wear and tear on cars, even setting them up for track is very expensive. and karting you can actually enter races and be competitive as far as i understand, instead of just beating your own times etc..

not to say if i do get into karting i will never take the gtr on the track, there just two different things..

im guessing you could race all year in a go kart for maybe 5k or under including buying a kart?..

Alex races a kart too. loves it! He has the Evo but is converting that back from Time Attack spec back to a streetable nugget and just using the kart for fun as its so cheap!

Wakie isnt cheaper when you factor fuel, accomodation and track time, last time i went there it cost me $6500 :P lolz

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
